Resources
In this section you can download the full tripartite agreement for students, academic tutors and host organisations and the three flow diagrams. These documents are meant to be helpful tools for you to explore and reflect on the way placements are carried out, specifically the before, during and after stages. We also provide a list of links to related useful material on credited placements. A bibliography of related articles can also be found in the working paper.
